Ammonia nitrogen is a common pollutant in wastewater, and its removal is crucial to protect water quality and aquatic ecosystems. There are several effective methods for removing ammonia nitrogen from wastewater.
Physical methods, such as air stripping, can transfer ammonia nitrogen from the liquid phase to the gas phase by adjusting the pH value of the wastewater. Chemical methods involve the use of ammonia nitrogen removal agents. These agents react with ammonia nitrogen in wastewater, converting it into harmless substances or precipitates that can be easily separated. For instance, some ammonia nitrogen removers can trigger chemical reactions to transform ammonia nitrogen into nitrogen gas, which is then released into the atmosphere.
Biological treatment is another widely - used approach. Microorganisms in the wastewater treatment system consume ammonia nitrogen as a nutrient source during their metabolic processes, effectively removing it from the water. This method is commonly applied in municipal wastewater treatment plants, where large volumes of domestic sewage need to be processed. In municipal wastewater treatment, a combination of different methods is often adopted. Ammonia nitrogen removal agents may be used as an auxiliary in the biological treatment process to enhance the removal efficiency, especially when dealing with wastewater containing high - concentration ammonia nitrogen.
In summary, through a variety of methods including the use of ammonia nitrogen removal agents and biological treatment, we can achieve efficient ammonia nitrogen removal, ensuring that wastewater meets the discharge standards and minimizing environmental pollution.
